The Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office revealed Monday it will ask the state Supreme Court to hear an appeal of an appellate division decision reversing the child endangerment convictions of the former, longtime head baseball coach of St. Rose High School in Belmar.

The Prosecutor's Office, after reviewing last week's decision by a panel of appellate judges reversing Bartholomew "Coach Bart'' McInerney's child endangerment convictions and granting him a new trial, reached the opinion that the decision was erroneous, said First Assistant Prosecutor Richard Incremona.
